Bill Summary

Relative to the health insurance of children of divorced parents. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill amends Massachusetts law to require health insurance providers to provide necessary information and documents to the custodial parent of a child covered under a non-custodial parent's policy, allow the custodial parent to submit claims and receive payments directly without the non-custodial parent's approval, and provide written notification of policy adjustments or termination to the custodial parent concurrently with the policyholder. These provisions aim to ensure that children of divorced parents can continue to access their health insurance coverage through the non-custodial parent's policy.
